We must continue to work very hard to keep diplomatic talks open with the Iranian leadership and they play their cards at the negotiation tables and ramp up their rhetoric. The Iranian leadership is trying to embolden its masses to join together and support them and they are plying for the Muslim fundamentalists to join them in their efforts to build up their military.We must use all diplomatic efforts possible to prevent a war between Iran and Israel or the manufacturing of nuclear weapons by Iran. We must not leave the negotiation table even thoug
It's going to take more than good intentions for us to pull this one off. We're all going to have to learn to think and behave differently in our business-as-usual routines. We offer you the 5 Cs of co-creation as a map for your exploration of this new and uncharted territory. Use them in working with other people, deciding how to proceed, and in resolving differences.
COMMITMENT - Set your intention by deciding together what everyone wants to accomplish. Do you feel enthusiastic about this? Do you talk about it together often? What obstacles do you foresee, and how can you deal with them?
COMMUNICATION - Create the environment for successful co-creation. Our relationships live in language, so what we talk about and how we talk about it determines the emotional climate of our relationships. Does your communication style foster safety and creativity? Are you communicating readily, honestly, and openly? Are there things you are afraid to discuss that need to be discussed? Are there any recurrent communication breakdowns, and is there a strategy in place so they can be avoided in the future? Does your communication include acknowledgment and gratitude? Is everyone giving effective feedback? Are you communicating your unified purpose to others in inspiring and enthusiastic ways?
COOPERATION – Cultivate the necessary attitude, where working together is motivated by an inner passion, not being forced by fear and the need to go with the flow of others' intentions. Are you able to find a common path through adversity, or is it everyone for themselves when the going gets tough? Are there any competing egos vying for the spotlight at the expense of others? Are you clear on the benefits of cooperation in this creative endeavor? What is at risk if you don't cooperate?
COLLABORATION – Use synergy so that everyone's ideas are vital to the whole. Are you able to express your ideas freely, without fear of judgment or ridicule? As a group, are you asking BIG questions that bring forth the talent of everyone involved? Is the system in which you are working set up to receive the avalanche of creativity you can generate?
COORDINATION - Synchronize action. What's the plan? Does everyone have an overview of how all the different parts are working together? Are you clear on individual areas of responsibility and accountability? What are the consequences, if any, for failure to perform? How often and in what form (phone, meetings, e-mail) do you need to communicate with one another in order to coordinate effectively?
To invite and nurture the presence of all 5 Cs, we have found it very helpful to use written agreements that clarify the foundation of the co-creative relationship. These are the ones we like to use, and we offer them for your consideration.

Successful bloggers. What do they have in common? A great number of links? The “blogging guru” appellative? Great ideas? A little bit of everything? Is there a recipe to make a successful blogger; something like: take one part knowledge, two parts benevolence, a teaspoon of helpfulness, a sprinkle of talent and a dash of ambition, shake well and gently poor the blend (evenly) over a Web space? What does it take to become a successful blogger anyway?The answers come from the best. And the best are those people who are living brands: Darren Rowse, Liz

Niche markets are small specific markets. Individuals or businesses are grouped together for niche marketing if they share similar interests or needs. For instance, females who play golf can be considered a niche market. Reaching as many people in the same niche is necessary to making your small business work. However, if you are an online business start-up, finding your target audience may be challenging in the beginning.One way to quickly finding your target audience is if you submit articles to article directories as a way of marketing.

It is more spontaneous than sending carbon copies of an e-mail to a small army of co-workers. Additionally, it is more virtual than pressing the speaker button on a phone.

The other day someone asked me in our Online Think Tank why I was a President Bush Supporter. We were discussing atmospheric ambient surface temperatures, you might consider this Global Warming, Climate Crisis or Climate Change. The very first thing that came to mind was that he was not a lawyer, he has an MBA and actual experience running a business.Then the gentleman who loves Governor Richards in New Mexico for Democrat President in 2008 said that only one of President Bush’s businesses was really successful. I thought that was an interesting com
